About This Tour
Come with us as we relive the Battles of Lexington and Concord on their 250th anniversary! Join us for the signature living history event at Minute Man National Historical Park, featuring hundreds of volunteer reenactors! Throughout the day, you will learn about the events of April 19,1775 from many points of view. Enjoy a full schedule of living history programs and demonstrations, including a fast-paced tactical demonstration along a restored stretch of the original Battle Road!
